Hiking

According to legend, the schoolboy in the fountain scene is said to have been a hot-headed "Schusserbou" (shot boy, marble player). After school, he and his classmates used to regularly shoot, i.e. play marbles, in the schoolyard at Lorenzer Platz. He cheated as it went and it just occurred to him. When his friends asked him about it, he denied any cheating and reaffirmed his innocence with the words: "If it's not true, the devil should take me!"

On the west side of the Lorenzkirche is the Teufelsbrünnlein, a wonderful and legendary fountain that everyone in Nuremberg knows and that enchants passers-by with dragons and devils
